Galaxy Note 4 and metal housed Galaxy Alpha release dates

Anonymous

Samasung will be announcing the release dates and specs of the awaited Galaxy Note 4 and the much hyped Galaxy alpha wich is due to be incased in brushed Aluminium..  The announcement of the release dates is expected to be 3rd of September at the Samsung Media conference, 

 

The Galaxy Note 4 is rumoured to have a 5.7-inch screen with a QHD resolution of 2560 x 1440 - the same as the brilliant LG G3 and double that of most other smartphones. We also expect a powerful quad-core processor, three gigs of RAM, a fingerprint scanner, heart rate monitor and the S Pen, Samsung’s useful little stylus which has always given the Note an edge over the phablet competition.

 

As for the Galaxy Alpha, we expect this to have a 4.8-inch screen with a 720p HD resolution and specs which will place it in the mid-range of the smartphone market - a curious move, given Samsung will surely want to pitch its premium metal design against the iPhone 6 when it arrives in September.

Not sure that would be 'wetting any whistle' of mine!

 

£550 for the pleasure of owning a phone that is hardly a flagship model??

(In that... prior to this thread I had never heard of the Galaxy Alpha)....

 

With the Note 4 soon to be released, this would hold no interest....for me slight_frown

Not something I would consider buying myself, especially when I expect the Note 4 to be pitched at a similar price.

The Galaxy Alpha comes across as a competitor to the S4 / S5 as well as iPhone rather than a ground breaking handset given its 4.7 inch screen.

Compared to the Note 4? If prices are similar I know which direction I would take.

The premium is in the steel case. An understanding of manufacturing constraints and costs would make it obvious.
